Member of UK Parliament deemed stupid for Nazi uniform party

An MP had been stupid and offensive in organising a Nazi-themed stag party in France, but is not a racist, a Conservative Party internal inquiry found.
Aidan Burley was sacked as parliamentary private secretary to the Transport Secretary after newspapers published pictures of the boozy bash at a posh French ski resort.

The controversial party took place on December 3, 2011, in a restaurant in upmarket Val Thorens.
Fournier was photographed in full SS regalia whilst giving the Nazi salute.
